I'm ok with almost all of it, but MB-TEX ??? really??? you're killing me here.
I want' an EV version of my S63 coupe. I'm ok with the 4 doors but I want to be coddled and cosseted.
I want my exclusive quilted nappa leather with drive dynamic seats bolsters, while I get a warm stone massage as I whip through the tight twisties.

MB-Tex is likely the base option, as EV's are all about sustainable materials and production. The 450 and 580 both offer Nappa Leather and Multi-Contour Seats with Massage so its very likely the 53 will also feature these.

There is growing demand for animal free interiors in cars. And this is particularly true in the EV segment which is often purchased by people who follow sustainable practices.
BTW The animal-free interiors look very good - this is not the low-end grainy MB-TEX that they use on an A-Class. This is Nappa MB-TEX. You probably already have it on your S63 - it is the black nappa material at the top of the doors and on the dash. Mercedes switched these areas to Nappa MB-TEX for durability reasons given the intense sun exposure next to the window.

I assume you are basing this on the facts that the Plaid uses better/nicer materials inside, the heated and cooled seats are more comfortable, the suspension is better, the turning circle is smaller, it is quieter, has a longer range, more comfortable for 4 adults, more luggage space, better ergonomics, better displays for the driver and passenger, better HUD, better headlights and safer self driving features, etc. Right?

😆. It’s based on the same thing as all his other posts: delusion.
One of the things that will be nice in this car will be instant engagement of power.
In all of my other Mercs, it always takes that moment to engage the transmission.
Typically around a second, probably just under, even the DCT in the GT S.
But is will be effectively direct drive. it will be microseconds from pushing the throttle to wheels beginning twist.
The new Mercedes-AMG EQS represents the first battery-electric AMG production model based on the Mercedes-EQ architecture. The performance sedan with an output of up to 649 hp and a boost function that provides up to 751 hp, was newly developed and refined in Affalterbach for all performance-related areas. Thoughtful additions such as complimentary maintenance and free unlimited 30-minute DC-Fast Charging sessions with Electrify America included for the first two years provide customers with a seamless ownership experience. Starting from $147,5001, the 2022 Mercedes-AMG EQS Sedan will arrive in U.S. dealerships in late spring of 2022.
The AMG EQS Sedan will be offered in two curated trims for the U.S. market: Exclusive and Pinnacle. Both trim offerings build upon the generous standard equipment offered in the AMG EQS, providing a high-level of technology and EQ-specific features to meet the demands of even the most discerning customers.
Standard equipment highlights in the modern and progressive interior include the revolutionary MBUX Hyperscreen with three displays merged seamlessly under a single 56-inch curved glass surface, paired with the latest generation of MBUX with adaptive software allowing the system to adapt completely to its user and offer personalized suggestions for a variety of infotainment, comfort and vehicle functions. Specific features of the AMG EQS further emphasize the high-performance character of the sporty top model, such as the distinctive displays in the instrument cluster, as well as the multimedia display and standard augmented reality head-up display.
In addition to the groundbreaking technology inside the vehicle, the AMG EQS also benefits from the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ variable all-wheel drive system. Standard on all AMG EQS models, the system continuously distributes the drive torque between the front and rear axles, depending on the driving situation. Compared to a mechanical all-wheel drive system, the electro-specific system ensures a significantly faster response; the torque is checked 10,000 times per minute and adjusted if necessary.
The driving dynamics are further enhanced with the standard AMG RIDE CONTROL+ suspension with adaptive adjustable damping. Like the EQS from Mercedes-EQ, the suspension of the new Mercedes-AMG EQS features a four-link axle at the front and a multi-link axle at the rear. AMG engineers specifically improved the components and configured them to meet the special requirements of AMG customers. The AMG RIDE CONTROL+ suspension is based on AIRMATIC air suspension combined with adaptive, electronically controlled adjustable damping together with rear-axle steering of up to 9-degrees as standard.
To help ensure safe driving on the road, the entire suite of enhanced active and passive Driver Assistance Systems are included for every AMG EQS. With this, the vehicle can automatically maintain its speed and preset distance to the traffic in front as well as stay in its lane on multi-lane roads, and reduce the vehicle speed according to the traffic situation.
Additional thoughtful interior elements include, heated and ventilated front seats, leather seating surfaces, active multicontour front seats with enhanced massage and comfort headrests, wireless smartphone integration, wireless charging in the front and Burmester® Surround Sound System with 3D Sound, EQ Sound Experience and Sound Personalization.
The all-new AMG EQS represents a new era in the performance segment, providing innovative electric mobility without sacrificing the sporty and agile driving dynamics characteristic of Mercedes-AMG. To further enhance the experience for customers, Mercedes-Benz USA will offer AMG EQS customers complimentary 30- minute DC Fast charging with the Electrify America Network for 24-months from account activation, and two years of free maintenance.
